    I expected to return from Rosemont reading 'Castillejo' was robbed threads...

    That was the crowd sentiment. People were heading to the gates pissed off that Vargas looked like crap.

    There was a "WTF"? aura when the scores were announced.

    I haven't watched the HBO telecast yet. How did Lederman score the fight? How did the announcers rate Vargas?

    I scored the fight Castillejo 96-93.

    I'm the bald guy in the yellow sweater behind the girl in the blue blouse that you can see whenever the fighters head to the ropes opposite the camera.

    There was a big brawl in the crowd after the fight too involving at least a half dozen people. It was crazy. The exits were blocked until a fleet of security came to break it up. One guy took like 3 billy club shots to the back...

    I thought Soto beat Juarez by a wider margin than was announced, too...

    The announcers thought that Nando won easily, and that he was too hard on himself for his performance....

    Castillejo 96-93??? Which 7 rounds did he win? I gave him 3 and I thought I was being overly-generous....

      *********.com didn't act shocked, either.

      A re-watch, this time on TV, might change my mind. But nobody, I mean nobody, that was vocal around me that Fernando won the fight when the last bell rang.

      I thought Castillejo won the last four rounds and a couple early...

      Of course it's hard to see what's landing and what's none when you're seated in one spot. The TV feed above me was behind the lighting fixtures, making it tough to make out details...

        You jumped all over me for scoring Rahman vs Barrett a draw, and then scored this fight for Castillejo?

        Sorry man, but you should watch it on tape.

        NO WAY did Castillejo win more than 4 rounds tops, and he had a KD against him.

        Absolutly no way could any credible score card have that fight for Castillejo.

        You should re watch it for sure.

          Yeah, I couldnt believe I heard them chanting Castillejo. Truth be told, Castillejo is a bum. And I predicted a Vargas decision with a boring perfomance. Just ask RunwithKnives.

              Four rounds for Castillejo is pretty damn generous if you ask me. I thought the two Merchant gave him was one too generous.

                good prediction, I got that one too (forgot to change UD12 to UD10 when the WBC pulled out of sanctioning the fight, but I still nailed the result!)

                Castillejo fought like a guy who wanted to take his paycheck and go home & retire

                  I agree, I had it 7 rounds to 3 with a KD.

                  I'm just saying 4 rounds is the absolute max I could see him getting.

                    Exactly. I see no way in HELL Castillejo got 7 rounds.
